Understandable. In the past I was fascinated with this idea, but trying to use this in practice disappointed me completely. I'm starting to doubt in it.

It's not about switching your mind, but mine. If you have any arguments PLEASE share with them.

So what do you recommend for storing money privately (except cash)?

For me it's argument why they might be safe. Of course cryptocurrencies in my opinion aren't that safe and I have reasons to think like that, but I don't agree with your agument.

Yeah, I'm thinking about storing Monero.

Hardware wallets like Trezor and Ledger are terrible choice for privacy as they're more like hot wallets. You need to download their shitty electron app to configure your wallet and even if these apps are open-source I can't consider them safe, because they have toooooo much features. At the same time they're missing basic features like connecting through TOR network to them which should be must have as they rely heavily on internet features like online exchanges which can easily reveal your data.

Do you have any idea how to access crypto easily while at the same keep it private and safe?

As in title. As I know Android Studio need glibc so I need to use container but how about emulation in container? Is it possible? I have x86_64 CPU.

So if they see closed source source as something not cool why they allow to close their source code?

Of course, strong copyleft licenses sometimes can hindering development for example GPL and CDDL license conflict don't allow adding ZFS support to Linux Kernel. But it will not help with development when corpos are more taking than giving to project. Just look where's Linux and where's BSD - you can see how GPL hinder that development.

And why they see GPL license unacceptable in commercial use? For me unacceptable is to close source code, no matter if it's for commercial use or not. For me open source is alternative for that shitty closed source commercial software. If I'll try to make my own open-source commercial product based on BSD license it would be impossible. Competitor with more money for marketing will just take and close my source code, add few improvements then sell it as own product. Why I would like to risk that?

Change my mind.

Companies are just taking BSD code and don't contribute to it. At the end they're selecting Linux even if there's licensing risk and they have contribute to code. Why? Because Linux have a lot of contributors, that makes it much more advanced system with more features. Also companies which want to support Linux don't have to worry that someone would close their code or code they funded with money. It's not about competition but collaboration. GPL license allowed us also to sell own open-source solutions.

FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD are behind Linux. I love that systems (especially OpenBSD), but I don't see a point in contributing or donating to them. Instead of being ready to use solutions they're trying to be base for commercial closed-source products and it would be great as contributors could get something from that, but they get nothing.

I understand that BSD see closed source as something cool and way to commercialize software, but in today times where a lot of devices have 24/7 access to internet, microphones, cameras and at the same time to sensitive data it's extremely dangerous. Closed source is used to hide backdoors, acts of surveillance and keeping monopoly on market which obviously stop evolution of software.

Please tell me how BSD license can be good solution for operating system. It's not about offending BSD, but as someone who love open source software I hate closed source software I would like to know how I can defend this license.
